His inconsistencies drive me nuts. One game rebounds like crazy then disappears for long stretches. Next game he has crazy assists then none to be seen for games on end. Plays great on defense for a trip or two and then starts watching.

Ya I've noticed this for a while. He doesn't play with a lot of enthusiasm and energy. He's just going through the motions sometimes

way too much flip flop guy drops 20 for like 5 games straight gets punished and beaten up in a hard fought win dropping 21 against Indi and struggles against against NOH shooting 3 of 7 which is roughly 45% and having 7 points "OMG he sucks why do we even have him" Give Demar a break he had a lazy game last night a lot of the team was just going through the motions Indiana was a tough game.

Yeah, team rarely ran stuff for Demar. Plus, like you said, he played well in a very, very tough game. While Demar played sub-par against a bad team. I would much rather be happier with a guy that shows up vs. good teams, over showing up vs. bad teams.

I think it's just natural progression, in the wake of his huge contract extension.

- top 10 draft pick
- given lots of playing time from day 1
- hailed as the next franchise player
- becomes face of the franchise, praised by ownership, management and coaches
- thrust into role of primary scoring option, despite being a one-dimensional, inefficient scorer
- signed big contract extension (roughly $10M)
- slowly called out by more and more fans, for not playing up to the expections set (some fairly, some unfairly) by all of the above

Bargnani? DeRozan? Both!

+1

I am not a big fan of DeRozan and even less so of his contract but he has played up to my expectations. A decent/good pick from The Spin Doctor.

Who will be the next target of the fans' ire? I would hedge my bet on Ross and Valanciunas in a couple of years.

Seems like Ross. Valanciunas has proved he can/will be a star. Ross has shown stints that he could be a star. Not to mention everyone has basically guaranteed he will be a star, and I don't see him as a star. A good, talented player, but no star. Like I said, I compare him to a J.R Smith type player with defense.
